Liverpool news: Gini Wijnaldum could be in contention for the game (Pic: GETTY)

Trent Alexander-Arnold, Jordan Henderson and Georginio Wijnaldum all returned to training on Thursday after injury.

Henderson and Wijnaldum missed Monday night's 1-1 draw at West Ham, as did Alexander-Arnold who was absent for the third game in succession due to a knee complaint.

There was no sign, however, of centre-back Dejan Lovren during training at Melwood on Thursday, while Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain is not ready to rejoin the first-team group after 10 months out following knee surgery.

Joe Gomez also remain sidelined, with the England defender recovering from an operation after suffering a setback in his return from a fractured leg.
